Add spacing around images
In this example, I have added 10px to the top under padding on this image. This adds a small amount of space at the top.
You can increase the number for a larger space. You can add this to bottom, left, or right to apply spacing to the other sides of the image.
Add border around text
Section titled “Add border around text”A border that is gray and 2px thick has been added to this header title. Increasing the number will make the border thicker.
